American Express Announces Limited-Time 30k Bonus Points Offer for the Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card

Update: This limited-time offer is no longer available. However, you can check out the Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card from American Express for the up-to-date card offer.

Earlier this morning, American Express announced a new limited-time offer for the Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card.

Beginning today and extending through September 3rd, 2013, new cardholders can earn up to 30,000 bonus Starpoints®. Cardholders earn the first 10k after their first purchase, and can earn another 20k after they spend $5k in purchases within the first 6 months.

According to American Express, those 30,000 bonus points are good enough for a weekend getaway to one of the Category 4 hotels under the Starwood tree of hotels. So how good is a Category 4 hotel? Well, here are a few notable examples of the kinds of hotels you could check in to - for free - if you reach the spending threshold necessary to earn the full 30K bonus points...

  • The Westin Grand - Vancouver
  • Le Meridien Versailles - Montreal
